This Chinese film was fascinating for the first 10-20 minutes, thanks to excellent photography with bright colors and a very interesting look at a master chef preparing some exotic food. The closeups and sound also made it fun to watch.
However, most of the story revolves around the chef's three daughters and their love lives.....and it was simply too boring for me. It turned out to be nothing but a soap opera.
The young women all were pretty and all had totally different lifestyles but after 60 minutes of their stories, they began to wear thin. The film is slightly over two hours, so I struggled to finish this. I liked the three woman but this is a movie for the females, not me.
